Just last year I got laid off,
And now everyday I walk the dogs for miles
I talk to the birds and the trees
I sleep on the floor in front of her TV
Just to make sure she don't
how many husbands did I have?
why did I ever leave Birmingham?
Ramona, let me do it myself
Well, I guess I need a little
can you make me understand
But he started into drinking too much
And his hands began to shake
And I guess he had lost his touch
When Mama and me, we left Baton Rouge
could hurt like brand new shoes
Sometimes mama don't remember me
She pushes me aside, she says, let me be
because I'm still her little girl
how many husbands did I have?
why did I ever leave Birmingham?
Ramona, let me do it myself
Well, I guess I need a little help
Come on, Ramona, tell me, Ramona
How many husbands did I have?
Why did I ever leave Birmingham?
Ramona, let me do it myself
Well, I guess I need a little help
Can you make me understand?
Don't cry Ramona, don't cry
Don't cry Ramona, don't cry
